Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Albert Bushnell Hart
President Roosevelt has heard that Secretary of State Elihu Root and Secretary of Commerce and Labor Oscar S. Straus believe that the actions of Mary Mills Patrick and her associates in Constantinople are wrong. He has cabled Ambassador John George Alexander Leishman about the matter. The United States will not interfere in internal Turkish matters and will not threaten force unless it intends to use it.
